| yvan300 | mongoosedog, sorry i'm not the server kinda guy, but i think nhandler could help ya out on servers :D | 02:22 |
| nhandler | I haven't used mediatomb before | 02:22 |
| nhandler | What are you having problems with mongoosedog ? | 02:23 |
| nhandler | paultag or pleia2: Any ideas what is in $PATH by default in Ubuntu ? | 02:23 |
| nhandler | (in crontab) | 02:23 |
| paultag | Oh yes | 02:24 |
| paultag | it is really locked down nhandler | 02:24 |
| paultag | nhandler: one should always use absolute paths on the cron | 02:24 |
| paultag | nhandler: I think it's just /bin and /usr/bin | 02:24 |
| nhandler | paultag: Yeah, I know ;) I was just interested in seeing if it was actually necessary for something | 02:24 |
| nhandler | Thanks | 02:25 |
| paultag | nhandler: aye :) | 02:25 |
| mongoosedog | well mediatomb runs in firefox but when i run it, it come ups with the page you get if you net drops out | 02:26 |
| mongoosedog | if you know a better server let me know MT sucks the bag | 02:28 |
| mongoosedog | brb having a smoke let me know tho | 02:28 |
| nhandler | mongoosedog: I've hear of people using http://www.fireflymediaserver.org/ before. Not sure if it supports the ps3 | 02:31 |

| mongoosedog | ...something really simple but ubuntu seems to operate very differently to what i'm used to (vista) i do enjoy problem solving but i've hit a massive snag, i could use DOS very well but the terminal throws me around, i really need some guidance | 04:29 |

| hobgoblin | morning - anyone on here got any experience with apt-cacher ? | 11:16 |
| duanedesign | morning hobgoblin | 11:27 |
| hobgoblin | o/ | 11:27 |
| hobgoblin | duanedesign: how's things/ | 11:30 |
| hobgoblin | duanedesign: apt-cacher is new to me - and there are different ones to use ... | 11:37 |
| hobgoblin | :) | 11:37 |
| hobgoblin | nvm - I think I have sorted it now | 12:30 |
| duanedesign | hobgoblin: sorry i stepped out. | 12:37 |
| hobgoblin | I think I can forgive you today :) | 12:37 |
| duanedesign | heh, you get apt-cacher set up | 12:40 |
| hobgoblin | think so with apt-cacher-ng - I won't really know till there are some updates on lucid :) | 12:41 |
| hobgoblin | if I get the downloads quicker than 70kb/s I would hazard a guess it is :) | 12:41 |
| hobgoblin | duanedesign: yep - all appears to be hunky dory :) | 13:58 |
| AJH101 | Hi I am hoping to install a dual boot of Ubuntu and Ubuntu Studio, sharing the same /home partition. I this relatively straightforward? | 17:28 |
| duanedesign | AJH101: did you get the info you were looking for? | 18:25 |
| drubin | 2/b 19 | 18:29 |
| AJH101 | Hi I am hoping to install a dual boot of Ubuntu and Ubuntu Studio, sharing the same /home partition. I this relatively straightforward? | 19:33 |
| paultag | AJH101: Humm. | 19:34 |
| paultag | AJH101: I would avoid it ( I used to do that ) | 19:34 |
| paultag | AJH101: the issue is configuration changes from install to install | 19:34 |
| hobgoblin | I would +1 that - I try not to use same /home | 19:34 |
| paultag | AJH101: since it is studio, I assume you will be running JACK ? | 19:34 |
| paultag | AJH101: so the default will be set to JACK once you do that on the Studio partition, but when you go back to Ubuntu it will try and use JACK ( and it's not installed ) thusly breaking the Sound system | 19:35 |
| paultag | There are other concerns. If youwant to share /home, create two users AJH101 | 19:35 |
| paultag | but even that is risky | 19:35 |
| duanedesign | or maybe a /data partition to share information | 19:38 |
| paultag | +1 duanedesign, not a bad idea | 19:39 |
| paultag | duanedesign: then ln it to ~ | 19:39 |
| paultag | duanedesign: I do the same with "/Media" and that has /Media/movies and /Media/music | 19:39 |
| SoSamono | hello every one | 19:39 |
| paultag | Hola | 19:40 |
| duanedesign | paultag: ahh, thats neat | 19:40 |
| SoSamono | can you help with something plx? | 19:40 |
| paultag | duanedesign: I like it. I keep 100 GB slices of my drive for different distros and I got tired of copying music around | 19:40 |
| paultag | SoSamono: don't ask to ask, just ask! :) | 19:40 |
| SoSamono | ok my problem is i want to put VLC player runing as defoult player on the cd-rom whem i put some media on at this moment i have Totem how can i xhange that in Ubunto? | 19:42 |
| paultag | SoSamono: sure can :) | 19:43 |
| paultag | SoSamono: There should be a menu item to change the default handlers | 19:44 |
| paultag | duanedesign: can you help? I am on my sister's box. No Ubuntu :( | 19:44 |
| duanedesign | paultag: yes | 19:44 |
| paultag | duanedesign: thank you <3 | 19:45 |
| duanedesign | SoSamono: you can change the default app for filetypes | 19:45 |
| duanedesign | SoSamono: R-Click on one of your movies, for example, and select Properties | 19:45 |
| duanedesign | SoSamono: Select the 'Open With' Tab | 19:46 |
| duanedesign | SoSamono: select VLC. If you dont see it you might have to 'Add' it | 19:47 |
| duanedesign | then everytime you select that file type it will open with VLC | 19:47 |
| SoSamono | i sse | 19:48 |
| SoSamono | isse | 19:48 |
| SoSamono | thnks for that i was looking for some comand line to do that :P | 19:49 |
| paultag | duanedesign: thanks :) | 19:50 |
| duanedesign | np :) | 19:53 |
| AJH101 | ? | 19:54 |
| AJH101 | register solicitor | 19:56 |
| hobgoblin | I'd not do that | 19:57 |

| phillw | lstdio_: get it from the people testing stuff :-D | 20:54 |
| ShadowKnight | hey, i had a question of how to set up ubuntu for netbook i wasnt quite sure how | 20:55 |
| lstdio_ | phillw, how do you think I found out? | 20:55 |
| lstdio_ | http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1446132 | 20:55 |
| phillw | lstdio_: also #ubuntu+1 on IRC | 20:55 |
| lstdio_ | I even left a comment... | 20:55 |
| lstdio_ | ShadowKnight, install? or configure? | 20:57 |
| phillw | lstdio_: have you had a read of http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1423210 | 20:57 |
| ShadowKnight | lstdio_, install it completely new with a windows 7 starter base | 20:57 |
| phillw | lstdio_: threads from the likes of technoviking are allways worth following :-) | 20:59 |
| michae1 | trying to get my box set up as a web test environment. went through the steps to get LAMP set up. anyone know where I can find straight forward directions on how to get the box to accept files when trying to upload to it? | 21:04 |
| ShadowKnight | anyone know how to set up ubuntu on a netbook? is it better to do the netbook remix or just regular ubuntu? | 21:07 |
| lstdio_ | phillw, threads like mine are always worth following up too. ;) | 21:08 |
| lstdio_ | ShadowKnight, in that case then, you'll need a pendrive, and the netbook iso image | 21:08 |
| lstdio_ | ShadowKnight, you can make the pendrive bootable using http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/ | 21:09 |
| lstdio_ | which will extract the image onto it. | 21:09 |
| lstdio_ | once complete, all you do is reboot + select the USB Hard Drive from BIOS boot setup. | 21:10 |
| lstdio_ | you can also follow this documentation for creating a bootable pendrive. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick | 21:11 |
| ShadowKnight | hmmm okay so in that i download the windows or linux version? and would it work if i put it in my external hard drive? | 21:11 |
| lstdio_ | ShadowKnight, you are in windows, right? | 21:11 |
| lstdio_ | you download the windows version ;) | 21:12 |
| lstdio_ | It is a program | 21:12 |
| lstdio_ | you run it. | 21:12 |
| ShadowKnight | lmao okay then just making sure. okay so i download that and the iso image? | 21:12 |
| lstdio_ | yes | 21:12 |
| lstdio_ | http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download-netbook | 21:12 |
| lstdio_ | ShadowKnight, ensure that you use a clean pendrive (ie: format it before using unetbootin on it) | 21:13 |
| phillw | lstdio_: There was no slight on your abilities, I apologise if you felt I was calling your knowledge & experience into doubt. | 21:14 |
| cliffhanger | Does any1 know if I can upgrade a 32bit version of ubuntu 2 64bit without doing a fresh install? (looking 4 a way so that I don't lose my programs) | 21:14 |
| ShadowKnight | okay thenthanks lstdio_ imma get on this right now. | 21:14 |
| lstdio_ | phillw, no worries - I'm not usually named this nick anyway. =) | 21:14 |
| lstdio_ | phillw, it does give insight though to see how new users are treated every once in a while =) | 21:16 |
| lstdio_ | paultag, plymouth is absolutely useless... | 21:17 |
| paultag | lstdio_: tell me about it. Fails with nvidia drivers. | 21:18 |
| lstdio_ | paultag, no it doesn't ;) | 21:18 |
| lstdio_ | http://www.sucka.net/2010/03/nvidia-drivers-ubuntu-10-04-lucid-lynx/ | 21:18 |
| paultag | lstdio_: yes it does | 21:18 |
| paultag | lstdio_: it comes out with text and not images :( | 21:18 |
| lstdio_ | see link :) | 21:19 |
| paultag | kk | 21:19 |
| lstdio_ | apparently that is all it needs | 21:19 |
| phillw | lstdio_: you've been grassed on, i know who you are ;-) | 21:19 |
| lstdio_ | haha | 21:19 |
| paultag | ty lstdio_ :) | 21:19 |
| lstdio_ | /nick sdennie | 21:19 |
| lstdio_ | speaking of which, I'll have to email him sometime. | 21:20 |
| lstdio_ | phillw, next time I'll come in as n00b then :P | 21:21 |
| lstdio_ | meh, if you look at my /whois stats, if it says telf, it's me | 21:21 |
| lstdio_ | if it says telf and it isn't ... let me know, asap | 21:22 |
| * lstdio_ may want to meet them | 21:23 | |
| phillw | lstdio_: I would hope to treat anyone politely | 21:23 |
| lstdio_ | phillw, and what makes you think that I wasn't treated politely in your custody? | 21:23 |
| ZachK_ | hey team | 21:33 |

| DiegoTc | hi danda48 need something? | 22:09 |
| danda48 | I have a Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic Koala machine | 22:09 |
| DiegoTc | yeap | 22:10 |
| danda48 | when i took it to my dads, i hooked up the network connection and it didn't recognize the on board network connection | 22:11 |
| DiegoTc | what type of machine do you have? | 22:12 |
| danda48 | amd 64x2 | 22:12 |
| danda48 | i just built it for him | 22:12 |
| danda48 | do i have to add a network connection and manually put in his mac address and stuff? | 22:13 |
| nhandler | danda48: How are you connecting to the internet ;) | 22:14 |
| DiegoTc | danda48, I am leaving right now nhandleris going to give you a hand | 22:14 |
| nhandler | ethernet? wifi? | 22:15 |
| danda48 | ethernet | 22:16 |
| nhandler | danda48: And did it work when connecting at your house ? | 22:16 |
| danda48 | yes it did, i'm online with it now | 22:17 |
| danda48 | its an M2N68- AM Plus Asus board | 22:17 |
| nhandler | danda48: Are you sure he has working internet at his place? | 22:18 |
| danda48 | yes, he was borrowing a machine and when i put that one back online it was fine | 22:19 |
| danda48 | should i delete the Auto eth0? | 22:20 |
| danda48 | before i hook it up to his ethernet connection? | 22:20 |
| nhandler | danda48: It shouldn't matter. | 22:23 |
| nhandler | When you click on the networking applet when plugged into his ethernet, does anything show up? | 22:24 |
| danda48 | no, nothing | 22:25 |
| danda48 | like its not there | 22:25 |
| lstdio_ | well, this is annoying :) | 22:27 |
| nhandler | danda48: Well, you should also be able to use ifconfig to set this up (http://linuxhelp.blogspot.com/2006/11/ifconfig-dissected-and-demystified.html). But I am a not sure why it would not show up in the applet | 22:29 |
| danda48 | do i run ifconfig from the terminal? | 22:30 |
| nhandler | Yes | 22:31 |
| danda48 | ok | 22:31 |
| danda48 | thanks for your help | 22:31 |
| danda48 | i'll study ifconfig and run it from his connection | 22:32 |
| danda48 | thanks again | 22:32 |
| lstdio_ | yay! | 23:35 |
| lstdio_ | I fixed | 23:35 |
| nhandler | :) | 23:35 |
| lstdio_ | my special bash configuration http://ufbt.pastebin.com/VERNVqw3 | 23:44 |
